PayDay: The Heist(For PC and PSN)

[Rumsfield 1]

E3 2011 unveiled an interesting game called "PayDay: The Heist", where (from what I understand) the idea is to pull off an extremely dangerous act(such as a bank robbery) and get paid. "Basically, it's Left 4 Dead with hostages and banks instead of zombies and safe rooms."

While this game is certainly not the first game where the player takes the role of the bad guy and is able to shoot the innocent(police, hostages), it may still take some heat. However, from what it appears you can choose to kill police and hostages or deal with them in non-lethal ways(shout at them to surrender).

But thankfully, "The interesting part is that, unlike a lot of other shooters, the emphasis is more on strategy than on firepower."

Features:

# Of Players: Single player and 4 player coop

Missions: Robbing a bank, extracting a prisoner, making an escape through a crowded street, infiltrating a panic room full of drugs and money, sneaking into a corporate skyscraper, and hijacking an armored vehicle.

We might just have the next media scapegoat here. If it's released at all that is.

Of course, someone might be stupid enough to try copying this for real.

Either way, it's an interesting and daring type of game.

Some sort of SWAT3 (or 4) from the bad guys perspective ?

Sounds good :)

Sounds very cool and original. Can't wait to play it.

You can play on both sides, so its not entirely evil. Reminds me of the movie HEAT btw. :)
